Each day another prominent Republican makes our day by recounting their bravery during a time of crisis. Rudy has made clear that he alone saved New York City from the horror of 9/11 and now
Bill O’Reilly wants America to praise him for the battle he waged in the city of Buenos Aires during the Falkland war. The Falkland Islands lie about a hundred miles off the shore of Argentine, and Bill never actually stepped foot on any of them, but he undoubtedly is a hero of that struggle. According to Bill, he watched police in the capital city confront mobs of protesters and they were fifing teargas at those who opposed the war. Naturally, this means being in Buenos Aires while what ‘FIGHTING’ there was occurred a hundred miles away places one in a “combat zone.” Of course, during World War II I was a child in New York
city where I confronted Nazi tanks and guns.

Bill is very upset at those who question his bravery. He yelled at a Emily Steel, a reporter, that she had better report his heroism or face the consequences. If she did not tell the truth about his heroism, “i’m coming a after you with everything I have. You can be certain it is a threat.” Some fight with guns, and Bill fights with bull shit. I suggest that Bill and Rudy form a firm that gives presentations on how to make money by recounting tales of being in a combat zone.

Current polls reveal that the United Kingdom might elect a Labor government to replace the current Conservative government of David Cameron. Among the issues confronting any new government in this nation is what should be the program to change to present to people. Among the topics of this challenge are:

1. How does one deal with immigration from other European nations? All members of the EU must allow immigrants to enter.

2. What type of economic model should be pursued? Should England pursue more central government initiative or devolve power to local entities?

3. Should England pursue a policy that witnesses greater power to the central government of the European Union?

4. Should England opt out of the European Union?

5. Should the government push for a higher minimum wage?

In other words does England need a government that confronts income inequality?

Members of the Republican party have a rendezvous with any nut case who can utter words of defiance and hatred of the president of the United States of America. For years this title has been held by Senator
Ted Cruz who believes any and all problems in this nation are the result of immigrants from the land of Mexico. I should make clear he refers to illegal immigrants. Of course, Ted was born in Canada, but what the hell, his mom was American. Now, after years of making millions of dollars speaking to businessmen about his heroism during 9/11 surrounded by dozens of cops wants to once again emerge into the limelight of making more money by attacking the patriotism of President Obama. Now, Congressman Darrell Issa is touting the wise words of the millionaire from New York. Darrell made clear that Rudy needs our “thanks” for clarifying the issue of who is a patriot.

Rudy and Darrell believe the president does not believe in the American experience of being an exceptional nation. I wonder if there is a nation in this world, a group of people in this world who do not regard themselves as “exceptional.” The issue is not whether a nation is exceptional, but what is the nature of that exceptional behavior? I do know that Rudy Giuliani is exceptional as making money using the bravery of others.

Even as I write these words somewhere on the social media there are some teen age Muslim girls enjoying interacting with some wonderful Muslim boys about the joy that awaits those who seek fulfillment of their dreams by coming to the land of ISS. Just last week three teens somehow caught a plane to Turkey from the United Kingdom so they might find a wonderful loving husband and enjoy the joys and comforts of living in ISIS land. Most probably they will wind up in Raqqa in Syria. Well kids, welcome to this wonder land.

1. Not much food around.

2. Fail to behave and a few lashes on your young bodies.

3. Wear a white veil under the black one in order to inform all young men you seek a nice husband.

About thirty years ago a great war raged in the Falkland Islands which lie off the coast of Argentine. This epic struggle held the future of the world in its hands as British and Argentine soldiers clashed with one another. Over the years, Bill O’Reilly has discussed his bravery reporting the battles of this great conflict. David Corn, editor of the magazine Mother Jones, now claims this man who nightly reports the “News” on Fox News sort of embellished his role in this conflict. “For years O’ Reilly has recounted dramatic stories about his own war reporting that don’t stand up to scrutiny when claiming he acted heroically in a war zone that he apparently never stepped foot on.” Apparently he reported the Falkland ISLAND story while in Buenos Aires.

Bill is very upset at another of these LIBERAL smear campaigns to destroy his heroic actions in this conflict. After all, he could look out the window of his hotel and see the islands. Surely, this brave act counts as being in a war zone! Now about Brian Williams…

The position as president of the United States of America requires an individual who can make tough decisions. President Franklin Roosevelt assuming office in the Great Depression in 1933 had to quickly decide on which programs to create in order to stimulate the economy and get people back to work. John F. Kennedy had to confront the possibility of Russian missiles in Cuba. Heck, even George Bush had to decide whether or not Saddam Hussein had Weapons of Mass Destruction. Those now seeking the Republican nomination for president are confronted with similar great decisions. After all, if they do win the presidency, one day the entire fate of America will lie in the hands of one of these mental giants.

Scott Walker, who already has made decisions to destroy unions and reduce health care in Wisconsin was recently confronted with an important decision. He was recently asked about his belief whether the president of the United States of America loves this country. “I assume that most people in this country love America. And to me, I don’t think it’s worth getting into the battle over whether he does or doesn’t. I really don’t know what his opinions are on that one way of another.”

Tune in for Scott’s views on health care. I don’t know if he has such views one way or another.

There is no doubt the situation in the Middle East is of concern to any thinking individual. Jeb Bush, Rudy Giuliani, Rick Perry and Chris Christie want the American people to realize this situation stems from policies of the Obama administration. You remember Al-Qaeda, you remember the invasion of Iraq, you remember the invasion of Afghanistan, you remember 9/11, all events that were caused by actions of the Obama administration. Day after day Republican leaders shout and scream about the “disastrous policies” of Barack Obama. Why did this black dude from Africa send American boys to fight in the Middle East? There is no doubt that this man does not love America. One bloody invasion after another. Wait a second. Let me see:

1. Incoming President George Bush was told by outgoing President Clinton about al-Qaeda. He decided not to pay attention.

2. President George Bush ordered the invasion of Afghanistan.

3. President George Bush ordered the invasion of Iraq.

4. It was under the presidency of Republican President George Bush that al-Qaeda grew in power.

Yes, it is clear the “disastrous policies” of Barack Obama created terrorism in the Middle East!

President Recep Erdogan of Turkey regards that the greatest danger confronting his nation is failure to make certain that boys and girls are praying each day whether at the mosque or in school. He has unleashed a campaign whose main focus in on ensuring that life in Turkey is like life in the Ottoman Empire. He is now insisting that children in school learn the Ottoman language. There is no doubt that one who can speak this language will find work in most nations of the world. However, the most serious aspect of his presidency is the growing number of attacks on women. Naturally, this event is not of much concern to the president of the country. Turkish women were shocked a the latest rape of a woman. Ozgecan Aslan was raped and murdered while on a mini bus which apparently did not shock President Erdogan.

Each day in Turkey women are harassed and attacked by men who regard it as their right to fondle a woman. After all, if they decide to go out on the streets dressed in clothes that appear to be seductive, a male has a right to touch and violate a body. A twenty three year old girl was run over by her boy friend, a 13 year old girl was raped. But, let’s get back to the real problem in Turkey, not enough girls are studying the Ottoman language!
